Billie Stone Turns 1!

I already wrote this blog post once - insert crying face emoji - and for some reason my internet decided to fail and not save it. So here it goes again! Whew.

Time, time is so cruel. I've never heard a more truer statement then those of mother's surrounding me. The days are long, but the years are short. How quickly a year has already gone by with our little Billie Stone. She's become an amazingly strong and independent tiny human and I fall more and more in love with her everyday.

I see a lot of myself and Adam in Billie. Her little personality grows and unfolds each and everyday and it feels so special to get to know her! She's a wild one, and I couldn't love it more. Celebrating her was so fun. We are currently in Frederic, Michigan and held a enchanted fairy party for Bill in the woods. I made most of the food from scratch so that Billie could each most anything she wanted to. Since of course, it was her day! She loved the macaroni salad and the potato salad and veggies with butternut squash humus (yum!!).

Her smash cake was vegan and only the frosting had a small amount of coconut sugar in it. She's never had any kind of processed sugar before this, and we plan to continue on a processed sugar-free diet until we see fit! It seems to bog us all down. And for those of you curious, Billie is on a vegan plant based diet and thriving!

If you have any questions on the recipes, do comment below. I'll link her smash cake since I know a few of you have already inquired about that! Hope you enjoy these photos as much as I do! I could look through them over and over again, I love her so much!
